Happy People
Peace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How do you do it, how you keep for so long
I'm a bad computer, slow to load
I disconnected from you and i learned to learn
Do you feel colder?
Now you spent the summer again
Slowly getting older
Sometimes I feel like we're made out of stone
Trying to move but there's nowhere to go
All you happy people, where'd you go?
When the season leaves you all alone
Patience has no virtue, it never had
I never tried to hurt you, you owe me that
Do you feel colder?
Now you spent the summer again
Slowly getting older
Were you even happy then
Sometimes I feel like we're made out of stone
Trying to move but there's nowhere to go
Where did all the happy people go?
The song Happy People by Peace is a reflection on the difficulty of maintaining happiness and connection in the fast-paced, demanding world we live in. The singer is addressing the "happy people" directly, asking them how they manage to maintain their happiness and connection with others. The lyric "I'm a bad computer, slow to load" suggests that the singer struggles with keeping up with the pace of life and feels disconnected from others as a result.
The chorus of the song's lyrics express a sense of disillusionment with the passing of time and the pressure to constantly be happy, as the world around us changes. The line "Sometimes I feel like we're made out of stone / Trying to move but there's nowhere to go" paints a picture of the struggle to navigate life's challenges, despite feeling trapped and stuck.
The second verse is a reflection on the transience of happiness and the loneliness that can come with it. The singer laments that "when the season leaves you all alone", even the happiest people can feel lost and disconnected. The chorus is repeated, emphasizing the idea that happiness is fleeting, and that even those who appear happy on the surface can be struggling underneath.
Overall, Happy People conveys a sense of unease and longing for connection in a world that often prioritizes productivity and material success over emotional well-being. The lyrics are a poignant reminder that happiness is an elusive and impermanent state, and that we must work to maintain our connections with others in order to weather life's ups and downs.
Line by Line Meaning
All you happy people let me know
Please tell me, happy people, how you maintain your happiness
How do you do it, how you keep for so long
What's your secret to being happy for such a long time
I'm a bad computer, slow to load
I'm not good at keeping up with others' happiness, it takes me a while to catch up
I disconnected from you and I learned to learn
I disconnected from others' happiness and learned to find my own happiness
Do you feel colder?
Are you feeling less happy now?
Now you spent the summer again
You've gone through another season and time has passed
Slowly getting older
We're all aging with time
Were you even happy then
Were you truly happy during that time or were you pretending?
Sometimes I feel like we're made out of stone
We feel stuck and unable to move forward sometimes, like we're stuck in place
Trying to move but there's nowhere to go
It feels like we're trying to progress but we're stuck in place
All you happy people, where'd you go?
Where did all the happy people disappear to?
When the season leaves you all alone
When the season changes and everyone else moves on, you're left alone
Patience has no virtue, it never had
Being patient doesn't always pay off
I never tried to hurt you, you owe me that
I didn't intentionally hurt you, but I deserve an explanation or closure
